We all have the power to reconnect with our natural ability to heal
Hello, I'm Anna Karuna Egan (she/her). I work as a Registered Psychotherapist in private practice in Ottawa, Ontario. My approach is designed to help you uncover and nurture a compassionate inner voice, and remain rooted in the present moment.
I offer therapeutic services to individuals, couples, and families, in-person in Ottawa, Ontario, and virtually across the province. Additionally, I'm a certified Iyengar Yoga teacher with over two decades of yoga practice and extensive training as a meditation teacher. As both a teacher and therapist, I aspire that meditation and holistic therapy will foster awareness and serve as catalysts for developing relational intelligence, spiritual depth, and innate wisdom.

Are you seeking personalized support to explore your goals? I specialize in assisting clients dealing with, chronic pain, trauma, and relationship issues.
Transitions in life are difficult but can also serve as opportunities for personal growth, provided we have the right support. They enable us to identify and address old patterns, integrate new experiences, and develop healthier coping mechanisms.
My approach is designed to help you uncover underlying issues, nurture a compassionate inner voice, and remain rooted in the present moment.

Family therapy is a collaborative approach that involves working with families to help them improve communication, and create healthier dynamics. As a therapist, I view the family as a complex system where each member plays a role and contributes to the overall functioning of the unit. My goal is to help families identify and understand their patterns of interaction, as well as the underlying issues that may be causing distress or conflict.
Through therapy, families can develop new ways of relating to one another, strengthen their bonds, and navigate challenges more effectively.
“When the body feels safe, the heart opens naturally.”
Somatic Wisdom
Somatic wisdom comes from the Latin soma, meaning the living body. It refers to the body’s innate intelligence — the way our nervous system, breath, posture, and felt sense hold information, resilience, and pathways for healing.
Traditional healing systems have long recognized what modern neuroscience now confirms: the mind and body are inseparable. When we learn to listen inwardly, the body becomes not only a place where stress is held, but a guide for restoration and transformation.
This work integrates somatic wisdom with contemporary nervous system research. Through mindful movement, trauma-informed yoga, and compassionate presence, the body is supported in releasing tension, restoring safety, and reconnecting with a deeper sense of wholeness.
Spiritually Integrated therapy
Spiritually integrated psychotherapy is an invitation to bring your whole self into the therapeutic space — including questions of meaning, values, faith, doubt, and the deeper currents shaping your life.
For some, this work includes practices such as mindfulness, meditation, prayer, or contemplation. For others, it looks like sitting together with life’s uncertainties, exploring what feels sacred or meaningful, or gently turning toward the places where clarity has not yet arrived. There is no belief system required — only curiosity and a willingness to listen inwardly.
This approach honours both psychological insight and spiritual experience, recognizing that healing does not always come from answers, but from being met with presence, compassion, and openness. Together, we create space to explore the mysteries of your life, your suffering, and your longings — allowing meaning, resilience, and growth to unfold in their own time.
